Mountain and Forest Kingdom

“Gah!!Gah!!!!”

In the morning, while Lawrence was still sleeping, he was awakened by crows.

Lawrence stood up from the bed and looked at the newly dawned sky and the crow squawking anxiously at the window.

Next to him, Delen opened his eyes and sat up, looking over there in annoyance.

"What's wrong? What did that crow call you for?"

Lawrence reluctantly got out of bed, quickly put on his shoes and tied his linen belt, "I'll go out and take a look, you continue to sleep."

"Well..." Sophia was very sleepy and used to the crow's harassment.

Crow stood on the window sill and urged anxiously: "Gah wow!!"

Lawrence quickly went downstairs, and as soon as he left the house, he saw the crow flying towards the distance, landing on the wall of the North District and shouting at him.

Lawrence called Mandekru and Seravan, and soon the three of them rode the sheep and followed the crow.

The crow stopped after a while and shouted anxiously at the three of them, sometimes flying to Lawrence's shoulder to urge them.

Soon the three of them arrived at Talim Mountain. Just when Lawrence was wondering what the crow was doing, the crow quickly flew to a big tree and screamed at the bottom.

"Gah!"

Lawrence didn't understand what the crow was up to.

Suddenly at this time, a gray lynx quickly ran out into the distance.

The three of them were a little frightened by the bobcat that ran out of the bushes, but they breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that it was just a snow cat less than one meter tall.

Snow cats are unique cats here. They are very few in number and are very afraid of people.

Because they are so fast and smart, few people can catch them.

Lawrence saw the snow cat running away and continued to watch the crow.

The crow quickly flew down and landed in the bush, continuing to call inside.

"Gah!"

"Woo~"

The three of them heard the cry of the snow cat cub. At this time, Lawrence looked at the position behind him. Sure enough, the snow cat that escaped just now did not really run away, but stood in the distance and watched vigilantly. .

Lawrence quickly got off the sheep's back and used a long knife to push aside the obstructing branches and weeds. Inside, he saw a nest of snow-white kittens and a crow that was trying to fight the kittens.

Snow cats' nests contain not only hay and leaves, but also feathers from crows and other birds.

Lawrence now understood the cause and effect. The crow's companion or family was hunted by the snow cat, and then he asked for help from the snow cat who came to kill the grasshopper bird.

Of course, it can't defeat the snow cat by itself, and it doesn't dare to get close to retaliate, but it can call the strongest predator in the north to come to help.

Lawrence soon realized something.

In the animal kingdom, the one who actively provides food seems to be the submissive, not the feeder.

Because only the weak will take the initiative to give up food.

When feeding dogs, the status of the breeding farm is determined, and when feeding chickens and sheep, they also show ruthless dominance.

If the sheep dare to cause trouble, they will be beaten severely. Except for Sariel's sheep, Lawrence often beats and intimidates the other rams.

Roosters that are highly aggressive towards humans have long been made into chicken soup.

On the contrary, because this crow is so favored, he now regards himself as a tool.

Come when you want and leave when you're full, no ambiguity.

People and animals can be friends, but at least they must distinguish between strong and weak.

Most beasts don't actually understand mutual benefit. From their perspective, win-win cooperation means winning twice.

Lawrence looked at the snowy mountain wild cat cub in front of him. This kind of cat is much larger than a normal domestic cat, and feeds on birds and poultry. It has a ferocious temperament and is not suitable for keeping as a pet.

If he could catch mice, Lawrence would really like to keep them.

But if you raise chickens, you must get rid of this snowy mountain wild cat.

Nature is the same without anyone. There is no need for snowy wild cats on this mountain.

"Ouch~" The three kittens roared fiercely, obviously they have been weaned for some time.

Lawrence grabbed the three kittens and took them out, and quickly threw the three snow mountain wild cat cubs into the basket.

The crow took off, and soon it was shouting happily from the big tree next to the snowy mountain wild cat, "Gah!"

Lawrence said, "Kill the cat!"

The snowy mountain wildcat also realized the danger and quickly fled into the nearby forest.

It is extremely fast and disappears in the blink of an eye.

The plants on the mountain grow extremely well, and the dense vegetation makes it difficult for humans to discover where wild cats are hiding.

But today is destined to be its unlucky day. Its opponents are not only three apex predators, but also a crow that is constantly looking for it in the woods.

The three of them and the bird were all extremely patient, especially the cries of the three little wild cats in the grass basket, which caused the big wild cat to always let out a low growl of threatening warning when hiding.

The warning sound of the wild cat allowed Lawrence to quickly determine the approximate location, and with a little exploration, he could find the exhausted wild cat.

Most wild animals have extremely low IQs. As long as they are locked in position, death is only a matter of time.

Lawrence spent the morning killing the wild cat.

"There should be other snow cats here. Come and have a look tomorrow."

Lawrence felt that it was getting late, so he threw the dead wild cat into Seravan's basket, and then returned to the manor.

Seravan put the dead cat away and handed it over to the shepherdess for skinning after returning. The fur of this wild cat was very high-quality leather.

"Master, do you want to keep those three snow cats?"

Lawrence said slowly: "Let's take a look. If a businessman from outside comes and sells it, our place is not suitable for raising such a beast that is not easy to tame."

Seravan asked curiously: "Master, don't you like cats?"

Lawrence smiled and said, "Why do you ask that?"

Seravan argued, "Because you would rather have that wild boar, and you would also have dogs and birds."

Lawrence said casually: "I just don't like animals that are too vicious. I don't like anything that causes harm to children and livestock."

Wild boars are not untamable animals, and the Kingdom of Luofen has domesticated a large number of pig mounts.

Moreover, every time the little wild boar came over, he ate leftovers with Doug and had no intention of attacking the chickens.

Lawrence didn't have that much ill will toward a piglet that could eat feed with the chickens.

Mandekru said: "Snow cats can also be raised. I heard from people outside that many nobles like to raise big cats and dogs. Some dogs are taller than people."

Lawrence doesn’t have that kind of idea. There are a lot of things to do every day now, and dogs can conquer because dogs themselves are social animals and have a collective consciousness.

Snow cats are solitary animals. They hunt and live alone and have no interaction with humans. They are very troublesome to domesticate.

Now busy with all kinds of big things involving hundreds of people, Lawrence has no time to keep pets.

Lawrence returned home. Although he wanted to teach this crow a lesson that was always looking for trouble, he had to admit that what the crow did was very good for him.

"Emma, ​​if the crow comes to ask for help when I'm not at home in the future, you can arrange for someone to go and have a look. Protecting the crow means protecting us."

Lawrence had previously chosen Crowfeather as his last name, and no matter what he thought now, those crows needed to be protected.

"Yes, I understand." Emma regarded this matter as important.

In this manor, crows have a mysterious status, and because of Lawrence's relationship, everyone thinks that those crows can predict the future and are similar to prophets.
